James will not stay at Bayern... or Madrid

There are still some who don't remember that Madrid have a not so secret weapon. But this one, unlike Hazard, Pogba and co, already belongs to Real Madrid. 

In order for James to actually play for Real again though, a few things will need to happen, Bayern will have to renounce their option to purchase the Colombian international. And that is exactly what they are planning on doing according to 'Marca'.

If Bayern reject the possibility of keeping James in exchange for 42 million euros, the Colombian will return to the Santiago Bernabéu. But it does not seem that he will be staying there permanently.

'Marca' highlights on its cover the desire of the former Monaco player to play for Real again, but adds that Zidane does not have this in mind and will be looking to sell the Colombian. 

Therefore, the most likely thing to happen seems to be a James departure to somewhere totally different, this will no doubt alert several of Europe's top clubs as the Colombian will seem a relative bargain, assuming Real ask for the same price for James as Bayern have negotiated.
